Palette generator
Make a color palette in seconds. Lock the colors you like, generate the rest, then send your palette in for others to use.
How to use it
- Click Generate or press the spacebar to get a new palette.
- Click Lock on any color to keep it; Generate only replaces unlocked colors.
- Choose how the colors should relate, and how many you want, from 3 to 5.
- Copy the colors or export them as CSS variables, Tailwind or JSON.
- To share it, name the palette, pick up to three styles and choose Add to palettes.
How it works
Any picks each color freely. The other options start from one color and place the rest around the color wheel: Neighbors sit next to each other, Opposites face each other, Three-way are evenly spaced, and One color varies only lightness.
Locked colors never change, so you can build a palette around a brand color.
Palettes you add are checked first. Once approved they show up under New in the palette index, with a Community label.

Questions
How is this different from the random color generator?
The random generator picks every color independently. This one makes colors that relate to each other, and lets you add the result to the public palettes.
Do I need an account to add a palette?
No. You only need to give it a name. We check each palette before it appears on the site.
Can I remove a palette I added?
Yes. Contact us with the palette link and we'll take it down.
Why is there a limit on colors?
Palettes on Colorfinch have 3 to 5 colors so they stay easy to compare and to use in a design.
