You can create a custom palette in one of three ways:
  1. Add hex codes manually
    Enter specific color codes from your brand guide or visual spec to control the palette with precision.
  2. Use the eyedropper tool
    Sample colors from any image on the canvas using the color picker. This is helpful when referencing past generations or imported brand materials.
  3. Extract colors from an image
    Upload an image from your computer and Recraft will automatically extract the dominant colors. This is ideal for building palettes based on moodboards, campaign assets, or photography.
Palettes are saved to your library and can be edited, renamed, or deleted at any time. A small color indicator on the palette icon shows whether a palette is currently active.
