Multiple HEX codes from coverage — not single-pixel eyedropper

Pix-8 Palette Extractor ranks dominant colors by pixel coverage and surfaces up to six deduplicated HEX codes you can copy in one click — not a cloud uploader that ingests files first, and not a color picker that samples one pixel at a time. It outputs HEX swatches only — not RGB, HSL, CSS variables, or JSON tokens. For pixel-level HEX with RGB and HSL, use Pix-8 Color Picker.

Why get HEX codes from an image in the browser?

Upload-based color tools send every reference file to a remote server before you copy a single HEX code. Pix-8 processes locally — the direct fit when you need to get HEX codes from an image for brand matching, UI references, or design handoffs without routing files off-device.

One-click HEX copy

Each dominant swatch displays a copy-ready HEX code — click to copy to your clipboard without retyping or manual conversion.

Up to six distinct codes

Dominant colors rank by pixel coverage with near-duplicates filtered — multiple HEX values from one image, not one swatch at a time.

Client-side by default

Your image is decoded and analyzed in the browser tab. Pix-8 never receives your pixel data during extraction or copy.

How it works

  1. Step 1

    Open Palette Extractor

    Navigate to Pix-8 Palette Extractor in your browser — no install, no account, and no upload dialog before HEX extraction.

  2. Step 2

    Load your image

    Choose a photo or graphic from your device. The file is decoded locally and sampled to rank dominant colors as HEX swatches.

  3. Step 3

    Click and copy HEX

    Review the swatches and click any color to copy its HEX code — one image per session, entirely on-device.

Frequently asked questions

Can I get HEX codes from an image without uploading it to a server?

Yes. Pix-8 Palette Extractor runs entirely in your browser. Your image is read locally, sampled on a client-side canvas, and reduced to up to six dominant HEX values on-device. Your pixel data is never transmitted to Pix-8 or any third-party server.

How many HEX codes can I get from one image?

Palette Extractor surfaces up to six dominant HEX codes per image, with near-duplicate shades filtered out so each swatch is distinct. Click any swatch to copy its HEX value to the clipboard. It does not export RGB, HSL, CSS variables, or JSON tokens — for pixel-level HEX with RGB and HSL readouts, use Pix-8 Color Picker.

How is getting HEX codes different from picking a single pixel color?

Palette Extractor ranks dominant colors by pixel coverage and presents multiple HEX codes at once — ideal when you need a set of colors from a photo or mockup. Pix-8 Color Picker samples individual pixels on click with a magnifier loupe and copies HEX, RGB, or HSL for one value at a time. Palette Extractor processes one image per session locally.
