Introducing Paletter, the Color Schemer and Palette Manager for Professionals
For the download and video demo, go to Paletter.app
I’m laying in my bedroom, setting up my new MacBook Pro, and wondering how to upgrade my work setup. One of my biggest problems: the color apps that I had been using were web-based, and I couldn’t use them offline.
My desperation turned me to the App Store; maybe it’s worth paying for a native app? My higher self spoke; “Max, you’re trippin’, just go spend like ten bucks, it’ll make your life so much easier.”
Much to my surprise, there was nothing impressive on there. All of the sudden, I had become eager to part with my money, but it had nowhere to go. I decided I must build something myself, and well, you know how the story goes… (soon, I will be asking you for your ten bucks…)
Paletter Helps You Achieve a Professional Look
Today, apps are simpler than ever, which means that getting the small things right matters more than ever. Whatever you may want to communicate — that you are fun, trendy, or reliable — few things will get that across as effectively as your colors. Paletter will help you set the right tone by providing you a large, flexible and complete selection of colors to choose from.
Paletter Gets You Away From the “Magic”
There are many applications available to generate color palettes, and some are definitely better than others. However, in the process of automating things, everyone has forgotten about the designer, and their role in determining the needs of the task at hand! Paletter is here to bring that power back to designers, because our brains still run the best algorithms.
Paletter brings you back to the basics like never before. First, you gain full control over how colors are displayed, and how you interact with them. Second, in addition to receiving complementary, split complementary, triad and tetrad palettes, you can get a flexible range of analogous and monochromatic colors. Third, it’s loaded with convenient native features to help you get into the flow.
Paletter Will Mac’ a Lot of Designers ‘Appy
The convenience of having a native app like this on your dock, and the comfort that native support can bring to apps like this, cannot be overstated.
For example, when you have a color in your clipboard, you can paste it anywhere in the app and Paletter will know what to do with it.
Similarly, when you right-click on a color, it’ll go straight to your clipboard in any format that you’d like, and… 🥁 you can even specify your own format.
As you explore, you’ll never have to worry about losing a color, as Paletter’s undo stack saves up to 100 colors, and stashes them when you close the app.
Status: Available on the macOS App Store
Paletter started out as a solution to my problem, and… well.. I have a feeling it will evolve into a (good) problem of it’s own. Download it today and let me know if you agree. If not, just hit me up and I’ll give you a full refund. 💫
If you’re on Windows, honestly, along with the M1 chips, there has never been a better time to switch to Mac. Regardless, a Windows version is in the works and you can subscribe for an update on the official website.
