    Matching your brand colours on a flyer, a website or a QR code starts with knowing the exact colour codes. Add your logo or a photo and the tool finds its main colours, from most to least common.

    Click a swatch to copy its hex code, or copy the whole palette as CSS variables for your website.

    Private by design: processing happens on your device, and your files are never uploaded to our servers.

    How to use the Colour palette extractor tool

    1. Add an image

      Your logo, a product photo or any picture you like.

    2. Pick how many colours

      4 for a tight brand palette, up to 10 for more variety.

    3. Copy the codes

      Tap a swatch for its hex code, or copy them all.

    Tips

    • Use a high-quality logo file: blurry edges create in-between colours.
    • For QR codes, use your darkest brand colour for the pattern on a light background.
    • Check text colours for contrast before using them on your website.

    Frequently asked questions

    What's a hex code?

    A six-character code like #4F46E5 that describes a colour exactly. Most design tools, websites and our QR designer accept hex codes.

    Why are the colours slightly different from my brand guide?

    Photos and compressed images shift colours a little. Use an original logo file for the most accurate codes.

    Is my image uploaded?

    No. The colours are calculated in your browser.
