PixelSpy turns any screen color into code-ready values, organized palettes, project tokens, contrast checks, and local exports for Mac workflows.
PixelSpy is a native macOS color picker built for developers, designers, and anyone who needs screen colors to become useful code.
Pick a pixel with the menu bar app or global hotkey, inspect it with a precise loupe, and copy the value in the format you actually need. PixelSpy supports #RRGGBB by default, plus CSS RGB, HSL, OKLCH, SwiftUI Color, UIColor, NSColor, Tailwind-friendly values, Lab details, and more.
Your picked colors are saved to unlimited local history, so useful colors do not disappear after one copy. Open the Color Workspace to search, favorite, name, tag, organize by project, add notes, assign semantic roles, and turn raw colors into reusable palette decisions.
PixelSpy also helps with real implementation work:
- Generate 50-950 color scales from a selected color
- Check project colors for duplicates and token conflicts
- Review WCAG contrast between foreground and background roles
- Copy code-ready color formats in one click
- Export projects as JSON, CSS custom properties, SwiftUI code, or Tailwind config
- Import and export local PixelSpy archives for backup or migration
PixelSpy is local-first. Color history, project notes, tags, and exports stay on your Mac. The app does not require an account, does not upload your screen content, and does not include cloud sync. Screen Recording permission is used only so PixelSpy can read the screen pixels you choose.
PixelSpy is localized in English, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Japanese, Korean, German, French, Spanish, and Portuguese (Portugal).
Built for macOS 13 and later.
