Atmos vs Grabient

Atmos is a color-palette tool for UI designers, offered as a web app and extension. It includes a color generator, wheel, shade generator and playground for creating and refining palettes. The playground supports LCH and OKLCH color spaces with sRGB and Display P3 gamut limits. Its contrast checker covers APCA (WCAG 3) and WCAG 2. Users can save palettes, maintain a brand color library, work with print color and share palettes with teammates. Exports include SVG, Figma, CSS, JavaScript, JSON, Tailwind CSS, Style Dictionary, Design Tokens and Raw, with HEX, HSL, RGB, CMYK, LCH and OKLCH values. Atmos provides a Figma plugin; Pro adds palette syncing with Figma. The free plan allows one project, while Pro offers unlimited projects and all features. A 14-day trial needs no credit card but limits exports to SVG. Atmos is made by RBND studio.

Grabient is a free web-based tool for making CSS gradients and managing palettes. Users can adjust gradient style, angle and steps, then create, save, browse, manage or like palettes. Search accepts descriptive terms such as colors, moods or themes. Exports include CSS, SVG and PNG; palette pages also offer copy options for colors, ShaderToy and JSON. Unauthenticated GET endpoints provide palette JSON, search, ranked palette lists and PNG renders without an API key. A URL seed determines a palette, so repeating the same seed reproduces its colors. Generated or exported gradients may be used for lawful personal and commercial projects under a perpetual, royalty-free license. Some features require an account, available through Google OAuth or email magic links. The documented API and image reads are limited to 300 requests per 10 seconds per IP, and PNG output has size caps. Grabient recommends itself for UI palettes, gradients and backgrounds, not accessibility contrast checks, image palette extraction, exact brand-hex matching or print/CMYK work.
