ColorForge is a professional color platform for designers and developers: palettes, contrast checking, format conversion, gradients, and accessible color scales — all in one place.
Toolkit
Focused modules, each solving one color problem properly.
Pick colors visually with an HSV pad, fine-tune with RGB sliders and hex input, and copy any CSS format.
Generate harmonious color palettes from a seed color using complementary, analogous, and triadic schemes.
Test foreground and background pairs against WCAG AA and AAA thresholds, with color-blindness simulation and fix suggestions.
Convert between HEX, RGB, HSL, OKLCH, and CMYK with precise, lossless round-tripping wherever possible.
Design linear, radial, and conic gradients with live CSS output ready to paste into your project.
Generate 100 shades, tints, and tones from any base color, with JSON and CSS export for design-system token sets.
Pull dominant colors and full palettes out of any uploaded image, entirely in the browser.
