Frequently Asked Questions

How many color palettes are available?

Unlimited. The Palette Studio generates six-color palettes (primary, secondary, accent, dark, light and neutral) from seven harmony rules — complementary, analogous, triadic, split, monochromatic, warm and cool. Shuffle for a new one. Read our color psychology guide at /blog/color-psychology-infographics for tips on choosing colors.

Can I create my own custom color palette?

Yes — lock the colors you want to keep and shuffle the rest until the palette fits. Each of the six roles locks separately.

Are the palettes colorblind-friendly?

The Contrast panel checks each color pairing against WCAG contrast ratios, so you can see which combinations stay readable. For color-blind viewers, do not rely on hue alone: pair colors with labels or patterns.

How do I use the palette elsewhere?

Open Export and copy it as CSS, Tailwind, JSON or GraphMake Script, or download a PNG palette sheet. The hex codes work in any GraphMake maker, your slides or your code.

Can I use this as a pie chart color palette generator?

Yes. Pick a palette with enough distinct colors for each slice, then copy its hex codes into /tools/pie-chart-maker or the Pie Chart widget in the /editor.
