Precision color tools, built for privacy.
True Color Picker exists because color tools shouldn't be slow, covered in ads, or connected to your private images. Everything runs in your browser — nothing ever leaves your device.
Why we built it
Designers and developers constantly need to pull exact colors from images — a screenshot, a brand asset, a reference photo. Most existing tools handle this with clunky interfaces, invasive ads, and server-side processing of images you'd rather keep private.
True Color Picker flips that model: a fast, calm, editorial interface with a serious color engine underneath. Delta-E perceptual clustering in CIELAB space, a curated dictionary of 4500+ named colors, real WCAG contrast evaluation, and modern developer exports like OKLCH and Tailwind CSS v4 tokens.
Privacy by architecture
Your images are processed with the HTML5 Canvas API directly in your browser. There is no upload endpoint, no analytics tracking your sessions, and no account to create. What you see is what you get — a free tool that respects your files.
