FAQ
Is my image uploaded anywhere?
No. The image is processed entirely in your browser using the Canvas API — it's never sent to a server.
How are the dominant colors chosen?
The tool samples pixels across the image, groups similar shades together, and returns the most frequently occurring color groups as the final palette.
Why doesn't the palette include every color in my image?
The extractor focuses on the most dominant, representative colors rather than every shade present, which keeps the palette small and genuinely useful for design work.
