Free tier

  • Free, and there is no paid tier to quote. color.adobe.com now serves Adobe's Express-branded colour tools; the colour wheel, contrast checker, gradient/palette extractor and Explore feed are all offered under 'Get Started for Free'. Saving a palette to a library requires a free Adobe account.

This is a $0 product, not a product whose price we failed to verify. There is nothing to save by switching away from it.

What Adobe Color does that free tools don't

  • Saving palettes into Creative Cloud Libraries so they sync directly into Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign swatch panels.
  • The community Explore feed of public, searchable user palettes and trend collections.

If you need these, Adobe Color is worth paying for. Check the current plan on the vendor's pricing page (opens in a new tab) before you buy.
