Paletteforge for YouTubers: Generate, lock and export brand color palettes

Generate, lock and export brand color palettes — no account, no export limits.

YouTubers pay monthly for screen recording, captions, clipping and scheduling before the channel earns a cent. One-time tools fix the cost of production at the price of a single video's ad revenue.

The tool this job usually means renting is Coolors Pro, at $5.99/mo — roughly $72 a year, every year. Paletteforge does the job for a one-time $15 — running locally on your own machine.
