Color Hunt

What it is

Color Hunt is a free color palette tool that runs on the web. Founded in 2015, it focuses on generating palettes and saving them for later use. Palette generation is the central listed method, while saved palettes provide a way to retain combinations you create. Because the platform is web, you use the service in a browser rather than through a listed desktop or mobile application. Color Hunt does not extract colors from images, so image-based palette creation is outside its stated features. It also does not perform accessibility checks, offer a brand color library, or support print color workflows. The free plan matches its free pricing model, making the service available without a listed paid tier. Its scope is therefore centered on creating and keeping generated palettes online, rather than handling image extraction, accessibility review, brand libraries, or print-color requirements. Users seeking those functions will need a tool with them, while people who only need browser-based palette generation and storage can stay within Color Hunt’s listed scope.
