Atmos vs Paletto Studio

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.

Paletto Studio is a free web-based color tool for surface pattern designers. It can extract colors from a photo, refine them with harmony tools, and preview them on a design in the browser. Users can also create palettes from pasted hex codes or colors in their library. The palette tool accepts PNG, JPG, and WEBP images up to 50MB. Recoloring can start from hex codes, a library palette, or a newly created one, and palettes can be exported for Photoshop, Procreate, and more. Palette and recolor tools work without an account. Signing in lets users save palettes, organize them into collections, and load them into the tools. Uploaded images are processed in the browser and are not sent to Paletto Studio’s servers or third parties. Users own their designs and palettes, but the terms do not guarantee that exported colors will match physical print output; monitor calibration and substrate variation can affect it.
