Just shipped tryswatch.com
Started as a tool to lock in colour palettes for design systems and turned into its own project. I wanted something easy to fine-tune, with WCAG AA contrast checking built in and clean export to PNG, SVG, CSS, Tailwind, JSON and .ase.
Would love some feedback :)

Love this! The ui/ux is really smooth. Something to make it stand out from Coolors is to possibly add more meat to the “explore” section.
Flip the emphasis from “color palette name” like GRAPHITE BLOOM, to “Best Color Palettes for Wellness Apps” and show 3-5 color palettes to grab from. Same with “Best Color Palettes for Fintech Apps”, “Fitness”, “Restaraunts”, “Travel”, “Education”, etc.
There’s a large subset of founders who don’t know color theory but still want a quick, clean, professional color palette for their app.
Kudos on the launch! 🙌🏼

Hey thanks so much for the feedback! Those are great ideas! I'm currently working on remixing the existing palettes in the tool so they're essentially good starting points
