Color Palette Generator — free online

You found one color you love, and now you're stuck picking the rest. What goes with it? A few shades lighter? Something on the opposite side of the wheel? Guessing is tiring, and most color sites feel made for designers. We added a free tool that does it for you — Color Palette Generator — right in your browser.

What it does

You give it one base color, and it builds a full palette around it. It works out matching harmonies for you — the shades and pairings that naturally sit well together — so you get a set of colors that belong with the one you started from.

Nothing leaves your device

The whole thing runs in your browser. Your color never gets uploaded, and nothing is saved on a server. Close the tab and there's nothing left behind. It's just the page doing the work on your own screen.

How to use it

  1. Open Color Palette Generator and choose your base color.
  2. Look at the palette and harmonies it builds from it.
  3. Copy the colors you like and use them.

It's free with no limit. There are more small tools on the Apps page.
