Image Analysis

This subcategory offers 2 free tools that need no account and help you understand an image in your browser. They are useful to choose a color scheme, check a dominant tone, prepare a design or spot clipped tones before editing. Tools include Dominant palette and Levels histogram. Files stay in your browser when the tool page says so.

Dominant palette extracts an image main colours in HEX and RGB, which suits building a palette, matching text or picking a background. Levels histogram shows the tonal spread and helps spot what is clipped. Start with the histogram if you need to correct exposure, then use the palette if you need precise colors. Both tools complement each other with no account or install.

How to use

Start with Levels histogram to see the tonal spread and spot clipped or blocked areas before any editing.
If exposure seems uneven, keep the histogram as a reference during corrections, then compare after each adjustment.
Then open Dominant palette to extract the main colours in HEX and RGB and build a scheme or choose a background.
Check that the palette still matches the visual message, then note the useful codes before leaving the tool.
