Questions

How do I get the color palette of a website?

Paste the link into a free extractor like Sitepeel’s color palette tool or colorize.design. You get the colors the page uses, ready to copy as hex codes or CSS.

What is the best free color palette extractor?

Sitepeel for colors grouped by role with contrast checks, colorize.design for swatch files and ColorZilla for single pixels. All three are free.

Can I extract colors from a website into Figma?

Yes. Site Palette imports saved palettes into Figma as local variables, colorize.design exports SVG and ASE, and Sitepeel exports an SVG you can paste into Figma.

Is Site Palette free?

No. It has a 24-hour trial for new members, then costs $30 a year or $99 once. Its help page says there are no refunds.

What’s the difference between a color picker and a palette extractor?

A picker grabs one color you point at. An extractor reads the whole page and gives you every color it uses, often grouped and ready to export.
