Color decisions that ship as real product UI.
Primary colors drive action, surfaces create breathing room, and readable text pairs keep the palette ready for real websites, apps, and client presentations.
Palette confidence
AA checks · light/dark · social-ready
Accessible
Every generated text and button pair gets WCAG AA and AAA contrast checks before it is shown as usable UI.
Shareable
The same palette can become a website preview, social color card, or developer token export without another design pass.
Image to Brand Kit
Generate an accessible color system from any image.
PhotoColors focuses on the step most palette tools leave unfinished: turning inspiration into implementation. Instead of stopping at five loose swatches, it maps extracted colors into UI roles, dark mode tokens, contrast checks, and handoff formats that product teams can actually ship.
Image to Color Palette
Upload a brand asset, product shot, or moodboard and extract dominant colors without sending the first pass through a server.
Production Color Roles
Convert raw swatches into primary, secondary, accent, neutral, status colors, light mode, dark mode, and a neutral scale.
Developer Token Exports
Copy CSS variables, Tailwind config, shadcn theme variables, Figma JSON, and OKLCH values from one generated system.
Built for Handoff
More useful than a simple image color extractor.
Classic palette generators help you find colors. PhotoColors is built for the next decision: which color becomes the primary action, which becomes the background, which stays readable in dark mode, and which export your developer or designer needs next.
- Semantic roles for product UI instead of unnamed swatches.
- WCAG AA and AAA contrast checks before handoff.
- Tailwind, shadcn, CSS, Figma, and OKLCH exports from one source.
- Shareable 3:4 color cards for launch posts and brand boards.
FAQ
PhotoColors FAQ
What is PhotoColors?
PhotoColors is an AI color palette generator that turns an image, logo, or product photo into an accessible brand color system with semantic roles and exportable design tokens.
How do I generate a color palette from a photo?
Upload or drag any JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF, or BMP image into the upload zone. PhotoColors extracts dominant colors and maps them into primary, secondary, accent, and neutral roles instantly in your browser.
Does PhotoColors upload my image to a server?
No. The current tool extracts colors in the browser first using Canvas API. The image is sampled locally for palette generation, which keeps the first version fast and privacy-friendly.
Can I export Tailwind and shadcn themes?
Yes. PhotoColors generates CSS variables, Tailwind color config, shadcn theme variables, Figma-style JSON tokens, and OKLCH values from the same palette with a single click.
Does the generated palette check accessibility?
Yes. The tool checks key foreground and background pairs against WCAG AA and AAA contrast thresholds before presenting the palette as production-ready.
Can I generate a dark mode palette?
Yes. Every palette includes both light and dark theme variants. Use the theme toggle in the preview section to see how your brand colors adapt to dark mode in real time.
