About this tool

Upload an image to extract its dominant colors using canvas pixel sampling and k-means clustering — a statistical technique, not a machine learning model.

How to use

  1. Drop or select an image.
  2. Choose how many colors to extract.
  3. Copy any color's HEX, RGB, or HSL value from the generated palette.

FAQ

Does this use a real AI model?

No — despite the 'AI' name (kept for searchability), this uses k-means clustering on sampled pixel colors, a standard statistical technique, not a trained model.

Why do the extracted colors sometimes look muddy?

K-means finds cluster centers across all sampled pixels, which can average out visually distinct but numerically close colors — increase the color count for finer-grained results.
