Palette Studio is a focused color workflow app for designers, product builders, and visual creators who need more than a simple color picker. Create balanced palettes, extract colors from images, fine-tune values with precise controls, test readability with WCAG contrast checks, and export clean color specifications for sharing with your team. Key features: - Palette generation: create 3 to 7 color schemes for UI design, branding, posters, and visual systems. - Image color sampling: pick colors manually from photos or extract inspiration palettes from visual references. - Professional color editing: adjust HSL and RGB values with precise sliders and real-time previews. - Color mixing: combine colors with adjustable weights and save useful mixes for later. - Multi-color contrast: review color pairings with WCAG contrast guidance for text, buttons, labels, and interface elements. - Color conversion: convert and fine-tune HEX, RGB, and HSV values in one place. - Export tools: create palette cards and contrast reports for review, documentation, or handoff. Palette Studio helps you move from color inspiration to practical, testable, and shareable design decisions.
