What is Website Color Palette Extractor?
A website color palette extractor analyzes a web page's CSS and visual elements to identify the colors in active use — primary backgrounds, text colors, button colors, accent colors, and border colors. Understanding a competitor's or client's color palette is useful for design rebriefs, brand guideline documentation, UI component matching, and identifying the hex codes of specific colors on a live page without needing access to the design files.
The tool fetches the page, parses CSS color declarations (`color`, `background-color`, `border-color`, `fill`), and groups similar colors to identify the dominant palette. Output shows each color as a hex code, RGB value, and HSL value — the three formats used by CSS, design tools (Figma, Sketch), and print systems. Colors are sorted by visual frequency, making it easy to identify primary, secondary, and accent colors at a glance.

Website Color Palette Extractor FAQs
Quick answers about the workflow, privacy, and where this tool fits in a broader job.
Why doesn't the extracted palette match what I see?
The extractor reads CSS color declarations. Colors applied via images, SVG fills inside JavaScript, or CSS variables not resolved at parse time may not appear. Dynamic colors (hover states, dark mode) require the CSS to be explicitly parsed for each state.
How many colors are typically in a web palette?
A well-designed website uses 3–7 core colors: one primary, one secondary, one or two accent colors, plus neutral grays and white/black. Sites with more than 10–15 distinct colors often look visually inconsistent.
Can I use this to match a competitor's brand colors?
Yes — extracting a competitor's palette gives you their exact hex codes. Use this for inspiration and competitive analysis. For your own brand, always create a distinct palette rather than copying competitors directly.
