1. Coolors
They describe themselves as the super fast color schemes generator for cool designers, and we’d see ourselves as part of that group! It offers a simple UI when adjusting colours similar to the Adobe Color CC design pattern, plus the ability to pick a single colour or generate an entire palette from an image. Photoshop and Illustrator extensions are a plus.

2. Adobe Color CC
We’d be crazy if we didn’t include Adobe in the mix! Pros include direct integration with Adobe CC Libraries or exporting colours as a swatch exchange palette for use in your favourite Adobe software.
