What does the Contrast Checker (WCAG) do?
Free online Contrast Checker (WCAG) — part of TeckForge's color tools. Runs entirely in your browser: no upload, no sign-up, no data ever stored. It's part of TeckForge's color tools collection, sitting alongside related tools you can reach from the sidebar.
How to use the Contrast Checker (WCAG)
- Open the Contrast Checker (WCAG).
- Pick or enter a starting color (by hex code, clicking a swatch, or uploading an image, depending on the tool).
- Preview the generated palette, contrast result, or converted value.
- Copy the color codes you need — HEX, RGB, or HSL.
Tips for getting a good result
- Check contrast against both light and dark backgrounds if your design supports a dark mode.
- Save the exact HEX codes you land on somewhere permanent (a style guide or design file), since the tool itself won't remember them.
- When picking from an image, zoom in first for a more precise color sample.
