Khroma

Khroma is a revolutionary AI-driven color tool designed to act as a personalized color assistant for designers, artists, and developers. At its core, Khroma utilizes a neural network that you train to understand your unique color taste. This personalized approach sets it apart from traditional color palette generators, offering combinations that are genuinely aligned with your aesthetic preferences.

The process begins with a simple yet powerful training session where you select 50 of your favorite colors from a vast, diverse grid. This selection teaches the AI algorithm which hues, tints, values, and saturations you prefer, and just as importantly, which ones you dislike. The more varied your selections, the more sophisticated and versatile the generated palettes will be.

Once the AI is trained, Khroma unleashes its full potential, generating an endless stream of color combinations. These are not random pairings; they are intelligent suggestions based on what the AI has learned from your input and from analyzing thousands of popular, human-made palettes from across the web. This ensures the results are both personalized and harmonious.

How to use Khroma

Using Khroma is an intuitive, two-step process designed for maximum creativity and efficiency:

1. Train the Algorithm: Navigate to the 'Train' section of the website. You will be presented with a large grid of colors. Your task is to select 50 colors that you find appealing. For the best results, choose a wide variety of colors to give the AI a comprehensive understanding of your preferences. Your training data is saved locally in your browser, and you can import or export it to use on different devices.
2. Generate and Explore: After training, Khroma generates an infinite scroll of color combinations. You can view these combinations in various practical contexts: as text on a colored background (Typography), as a two-color gradient (Gradient), as a four-color palette (Palette), or applied to a custom image you upload.
3. Search and Filter: If you have a specific color in mind, you can use the powerful search bar to filter the generated results. You can search by hue, tint, value, or specific color codes like hex and RGB.
4. Save and Utilize: As you discover combinations you love, you can save them to your personal, unlimited library for future reference. For each pair, Khroma provides essential information including color names, hex codes, RGB values, CSS code, and the WCAG accessibility rating to ensure your designs are usable for everyone.
