Extract Colors from Image
If a screenshot, product shot, illustration, or photo already contains the visual direction you want, the fastest move is to extract colors from that image and refine them later. This page is built for that exact workflow.

Fast swatch extraction
Pull dominant colors quickly, then move straight into conversion, theory, or palette refinement.
