Choose a photo from your gallery, pick individual pixels, extract dominant colors, refine the result, and export a reusable palette without uploading the image.
Direct answer: No image bytes or filename are sent through the Color Pick extraction path. Selection, decoding, canvas sampling, clustering, pixel picking, palette refinement, and export run inside the browser.
The browser receives a local File object from gallery, files, clipboard, or camera input.
The image is decoded in browser memory, drawn to canvas, resized for analysis, and sampled locally.
Pixel samples are passed to an in-page Web Worker that groups dominant colors without an upload endpoint.
HEX values, PNG, SVG, and JSON are generated from browser memory and downloaded on the device.
getImageData()The page can still load ordinary website resources, consent services, analytics, or advertising according to the active configuration. The local-processing claim is specifically about the selected image, its filename, and pixel data: the extraction component does not submit them to those services.
Camera processing, image compression, white balance, display calibration, and lighting can still change the recorded color. Local processing protects the file path; it does not turn a photograph into calibrated physical-color measurement.
Use photographs, product images, artwork, interiors, or moodboards as the starting point for a palette. Color Pick analyzes the file locally and keeps the original image on your device.
Select an existing JPG, PNG, or WebP from your gallery or files, paste from the clipboard, or take a new photo.
Choose how many colors you need and optionally exclude near-white or near-black samples.
Tap or click anywhere on the image to add exact pixel colors to the working palette.
Download PNG, SVG, or JSON, or open the colors in the Playground for contrast testing and role mapping.
Dominant colors are clustered from sampled pixels. The result reflects the image file, display processing, compression, lighting, and the selected exclusions—not the measured color of a physical object.
No. The image is decoded, resized, sampled, and analyzed in your browser. The filename and pixel data are not sent to the Color Pick server.
Camera settings, ambient light, reflections, editing, display calibration, and image compression can all change the recorded color.
Yes. Open the result in the Playground, then use Palette Readiness Score, Compatibility Matrix, and Contrast Checker.
