In their own words

Color Grabber

Color Grabber is a Windows utility that copies the color beneath the cursor to the clipboard in a configured format. Hexadecimal is the default, and CSS rgb[a] is also available. It can copy a paint swatch rather than a color string; the default swatch size is 64. A system crosshair cursor can be used for pixel-accurate selection in the two-step selection process. When clipboard watching is enabled, the window updates to show valid colors found on the clipboard. The preview targets four frames per second by default, and visible color notifications are enabled by default. Color Grabber is included in the Color Grabber, Capture and Clipboard Utilities, Simplode Suite Complete, and Simplode Free Select packages. The free Simplode Free Select option costs nothing and allows one premium feature or feature set at a time; the selection can change once every 24 hours. The download page describes a 24-hour premium-feature trial that can be renewed up to three times. Simplode Suite supports Windows 10 and may partially work on older Windows versions. The maker describes its download as around 10 megabytes.

ColorLogic CoPrA

ColorLogic CoPrA creates ICC profiles for color management in print production, including printer, DeviceLink and SaveInk profiles. Printer profiling can cover Gray, RGB, CMY, CMYK and Multicolor spaces, depending on the purchased package and modules. DeviceLink profiles support combinations of Gray, RGB, CMYK and Multicolor. Print features include profile updates, flexographic first-printed tone options and visual DeviceLink editing; that workflow uses image-editing applications such as Adobe Photoshop to work on supplied test charts. CoPrA runs on Windows and macOS. ColorLogic says its profiling technology is ICC compliant and its profiles can be used on ICC-aware systems. The September 2026 CoPrA 12 release lists Multicolor improvements, ambient-light measurement, Paper White/OBA Match and Batch Overview log files. The product is intended for color-management professionals working with presses and printers in offset, gravure, packaging, digital and industrial printing. Pricing is on request, and a 14-day trial is available. Permanent licenses can be computer-based or USB-dongle based; demo-created profiles can only be used correctly in ColorLogic applications.
