Why Use Our Advanced Color Picker?

Finding the exact hex code for a color shouldn't be a guessing game. Whether you are a designer trying to match a brand logo, a developer needing a specific rgb color, or just someone who saw a beautiful shade in a photo, ToolCompanion has the solution. Our Color Picker is a professional-grade suite that combines two powerful tools in one: an image color picker to extract palettes from photos, and a unique screen color picker that lets you grab any pixel from your entire desktop.

Pick Color from Image (The Easy Way)

Forget about opening heavy software like Photoshop just to find a color. Simply upload any photo, and our tool becomes your personal color picker from image. Hover over any pixel to instantly see its hex code, RGB, and HSL values. It's the fastest way to build a palette from inspiration.

Pick Color from Screen (No Extensions Needed)

This is a game-changer. Most online tools only let you pick colors inside the browser window. Our advanced Pick color from Screen feature breaks out of the box. Click the button, and your cursor becomes a system-wide eyedropper. You can grab a color from your desktop wallpaper, another app, or a video playing in a different window.

Maximum Privacy & Security

We know your images are private. That's why our online color picker is 100% client-side. When you use our color picker from photo feature, your image is processed locally in your browser. It is never uploaded to our servers. You get the power of a cloud tool with the security of a desktop app.

Auto-Generate Palettes

Picking one color is just the start. Our tool automatically analyzes your uploaded image to generate a full color palette based on the dominant shades. You can switch the "Mood" of the palette to find Bright & Vivid, Muted & Soft, or Dark & Deep variations instantly.

A Guide to Color Formats

Our color code picker provides values in the three most important formats for digital design:

  • HEX Code (e.g., #4A90E2): The standard for web design. It’s a six-digit code used in HTML and CSS.
  • RGB (e.g., 74, 144, 226): Defines color by the intensity of Red, Green, and Blue light. Essential for digital displays and software development.
  • HSL (e.g., 212, 76%, 59%): Stands for Hue, Saturation, and Lightness. This is the most human-readable format, making it easy to adjust shades by tweaking brightness or intensity.
