Frequently Asked Questions

What formats do you support parsing colors to?

You get all three formats at once: HEX for CSS, RGB for canvas and image work, and HSL when you want to derive a lighter or darker version by adjusting one number.

Is my uploaded image secure?

Yes! Your images are parsed securely using local HTML5 canvas processing directly within your own browser instance. The data never travels over the network, guaranteeing total privacy for sensitive mockups and pre-release client assets.

When should I use HSL instead of HEX?

HSL is easier to reason about when adjusting a color: raise lightness for a lighter shade, lower saturation for a more muted tone — changes map to how humans describe color. HEX/RGB are better for copy-pasting exact values into code.

Why does the picked color look different in my design tool?

Color profiles. Browsers typically read pixel values as sRGB, while photos may carry a different embedded profile (like Display P3), shifting the numbers slightly. For exact brand colors, sample from an sRGB-exported image.

About This Tool

Pulling an exact colour out of an image is a common need with an annoying number of steps in most software. This reads the pixel you click and reports it as HEX, RGB, and HSL together, because which one you need depends entirely on where it is going — HEX for CSS, RGB for canvas work, HSL when you want to derive a lighter or darker variant.

The image is read into a canvas in your browser and the pixel values are sampled locally. Nothing is uploaded or retained. For details on analytics and third-party ad requests, see our Privacy Policy.
