Color extraction is the process of identifying the most dominant or representative colors in an image. This tool uses a quantization algorithm to analyze the image and extract the most prominent colors.

The extracted colors can be used for:

• Creating harmonious color schemes for websites and apps
• Matching brand colors with complementary palettes
• Finding inspiration for design projects
• Analyzing color distribution in photographs

This tool processes your image in several steps:

1. Your image is loaded and scaled down for efficient processing
2. Each pixel's color is analyzed and quantized to reduce the total number of colors
3. Similar colors are grouped together to identify distinct color clusters
4. Colors are sorted by their frequency in the image
5. The most dominant colors are extracted and displayed as a palette

All processing happens in your browser - your images are never uploaded to any server.
