Click any HEX code to copy it to your clipboard. Use the colors in your design tool of choice.

Frequently asked questions

The tool samples pixels from your image using the Canvas API, then groups similar colors with a k-means clustering algorithm. This gives you accurate dominant colors rather than just the most frequent pixel values.

No. Everything runs in your browser using the Canvas API. Your image never leaves your device.

JPEG, PNG, WebP, and GIF. For URL inputs the image must be publicly accessible and support CORS.
