Khroma

Khroma takes a different approach to color palette generation by focusing on personalization. Instead of showing random palettes, it asks you to select a few colors you like, then uses a neural network trained on thousands of popular human-made palettes to generate combinations that match your taste. The tool runs entirely in your browser, which means no downloads or installations are required.

The interface is clean and straightforward. You can view generated pairs as typography samples, gradients, full palettes, or custom images. The search and filter options let you narrow results by hue, tint, value, hex, or RGB values. A standout feature is the built-in WCAG accessibility rating for each color pair, showing contrast ratios for normal text, large text, and UI components. This is particularly useful for web designers who need to meet accessibility standards.

Khroma is best suited for individual designers and developers who want a quick, personalized color discovery tool. The free tier is generous and functional. The Pro plan at $9 per month adds unlimited saved combos and JSON export. However, the tool lacks team collaboration, direct design tool integrations, and CMYK support for print work. It focuses narrowly on color pair generation rather than full palette management, which may be a limitation for some users.
