About

Accurate color picking without the upload.

Exact Pixel Color is a free browser-based utility for designers, developers, photographers and anyone who needs a usable color value from an image.

The tool reads pixels locally on your device. It can return HEX, RGB, HSL, HSV, CMYK and OKLCH values, extract a balanced palette and compare text contrast. Images selected or pasted into the tool are not sent to our servers.

How it is built

The utility uses standard browser technologies and performs its image analysis in the browser tab. It does not require an account, database or paid API.

Editorial approach

We aim to keep the interface direct, the explanations accurate and the privacy claims limited to what the product actually does. Color conversions intended for print, including CMYK, are estimates; professional print output can vary with profiles, inks, paper and equipment.
