Meet Rize

The color palette generator that doesn't suck. Completely free forever, no hidden fees, no premium tiers, no data collection.

What exactly is this thing?

Rize is a color palette generator that actually knows what it's doing. I made it because I was sick of staring at color wheels wondering "but which blue though?" and dealing with tools that are either terrible or want to charge you monthly. This one's free and doesn't suck.

Smart Generation

Actually uses color theory instead of throwing random colors at you and calling it a day.

Accessibility First

WCAG contrast checking and color blindness simulation. Because making things everyone can use shouldn't be optional.

Export Everything

JSON, PNG, gradients, whatever format you need.

Always Free

I hate subscription models and paywalls. Everything here is free because that's how it should be.

Lightning Fast

Hit spacebar, get colors. No loading spinners, no "please wait while we process your request" nonsense.

Actually Useful

I got tired of tools that make you jump through hoops. This one just works without the nonsense.

Why Choosing This

Color Theory Should Be Accessible

You shouldn't need a design degree to create harmonious colors. Let the algorithms do the heavy lifting while you focus on the creative stuff.

Accessibility Isn't Optional

Every palette should work for everyone. That's why accessibility checking is built into the core experience, not buried in a settings menu somewhere.

Speed Matters

Hit spacebar, get colors. No loading screens, no "please wait while we think really hard about this blue." Instant feedback for instant creativity.

Tools Should Get Out of Your Way

The best tools are invisible. Rize gives you powerful features without drowning you in complexity. Right-click menus, keyboard shortcuts, and intuitive controls.

Free Means Free, Forever

No freemium nonsense, no premium features locked behind paywalls, no data collection for ads. Every feature is available to everyone, always. Your palettes stay on your device where they belong.

Features That Actually Matter

No fluff, no gimmicks. Just the tools you need to create beautiful, accessible color palettes.
