About Chromapick
ChromaPick is a browser extension for designers and front-end developers who want to reuse the visual style of an existing site. Instead of taking screenshots or sampling pixels by hand, you open a page and the extension reads its colors, gradients and typography.
The extracted palette includes hex values with contrast ratios, CSS gradients and font stacks with weights. Results can be copied straight into Figma, and the site demonstrates export formats such as Figma JSON and Tailwind CSS variables. A playground on the homepage shows how it scans well-known product sites.
ChromaPick is a commercial extension with a free tier to try and a paid Pro plan. The product description states Pro is available as a $10 lifetime purchase. It runs in the browser rather than on a server you host.
