About this tool
Drop a photo, screenshot or logo and get its dominant colors instantly. Everything runs on your device: the image is read in the browser and never uploaded, so a client mockup or an unreleased screenshot stays on your machine.
Ask for three to eight colors depending on what you need — three for a quick accent set, six or eight to study how a photograph is actually built. From there you can copy the hex codes, export CSS variables, download the strip as a PNG, or open the result in the generator to lock the colors you like and re-roll the rest.
FAQ
Is my image uploaded anywhere?
No. The color extraction runs entirely in your browser using the canvas API. Your photo never leaves your device.
How are the colors chosen?
ColorSwoop samples the image, clusters similar pixels with a k-means style algorithm and returns the most representative colors, sorted by how much of the image they cover. You can choose 3 to 8 colors.
What formats are supported?
JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF, AVIF and any other format your browser can display. You can also paste an image from the clipboard.
