How it works
- Choose an image.
- Choose how many colours the palette should have.
- Click “Extract colours”, copy individual values or download the palette.
Notes and limitations
- The colours are calculated with k-means clustering on a reduced copy of the image; the result is reproducible for the same image and setting.
- Fully transparent areas are ignored. The share shows how much of the image each colour represents.
- Small accent colours may disappear in palettes with few colours – increase the number to find them.
Frequently asked questions
Is the result exact?
The palette shows average colours of similar areas, not individual pixels. For a single exact colour, use the colour converter.
