Palette Foundry

Stop guessing colors. Build reliable color systems for real work.

Palette Foundry is a complete environment for creating, analyzing, and validating color systems for real UI work.

Not just palettes. Not just contrast checks.
A structured workflow for making reliable color decisions.

Reduce guesswork, prevent accessibility issues, and create consistent color systems faster.

🧠 WHAT YOU CAN DO

Work with color through a structured, repeatable workflow:

• Generate palettes using harmony, tonal, seeded, and material systems
• Extract colors from images using advanced algorithms
• Organize palettes in a structured workspace
• Analyze contrast, readability, and accessibility (WCAG AA/AAA)
• Export production-ready design tokens

Everything flows through one system:

Generate → Structure → Analyze → Validate → Export

🎨 GENERATION ENGINE

Start from anywhere:

• Harmony-based palettes
• Tonal systems
• Material-style generation
• Seed-driven deterministic palettes
• Image-based palette extraction
• Curated collections

Every method feeds into a unified system.

🧪 ADVANCED COLOR EXTRACTION

More than basic picking:

• RGB K-Means clustering
• OKLab perceptual extraction
• Gradient band analysis

Built for accuracy and real-world usage.

📊 CONTRAST & ACCESSIBILITY

Make usable decisions:

• WCAG AA / AAA contrast validation
• Readability-focused feedback
• Foreground/background comparison
• Improve accessibility before implementation

🎛️ STRUCTURED WORKSPACE

Work with intention:

• Add, edit, reorder, and label swatches
• Build palettes without limits
• Maintain consistency across iterations

No hidden changes. Full control.

💾 IMPORT, EXPORT & TOKENS

Production-ready output:

• Export design tokens (JSON, CSS-ready)
• Import JSON, CSV, ASE, GPL, PFN
• Preview before applying
• Save, reuse, and iterate

🔒 FULLY OFFLINE

• No cloud
• No tracking
• No randomness

Your workflow stays local and predictable.

🎯 WHO THIS IS FOR

• UI/UX designers
• Design system builders
• Developers working with theming and tokens
• Teams focused on accessibility

Make faster decisions. Avoid costly mistakes. Build with confidence.

If you want a simple palette generator, this is not it.

If you want to build, test, and maintain complete color systems, Palette Foundry is built for that.
