Color Picker from Image: Extract Any Color

A color picker tool lets you extract exact color values from any image: a photograph, a screenshot, a logo, or a scanned fabric swatch. Instead of guessing which shade of blue a brand uses, you can upload the image and click directly on the pixel you want. The tool reads the pixel data and converts it into the most common color formats: HEX for web, RGB for code, and HSL for intuitive adjustments.

This is invaluable for designers who need to match a color from a physical object (photographed), extract a color from a competitor's website (screenshot), or pull brand colors from a logo that was supplied as a raster image without accompanying specs. The canvas-based approach means all processing happens locally in your browser, so your images are never uploaded to a server.

For the most accurate results, use a high-resolution image and zoom into the area of interest before clicking. Photographs are affected by lighting, compression artifacts, and monitor calibration, so the sampled color is a close representation, not a lab-measured value. If you plan to reproduce the sampled color in print, our printer calibration guide explains how monitor calibration and ICC profiles affect the screen-to-print pipeline.
