Our Story
Color Red was founded in 2025 with a simple mission: to create the most comprehensive and user-friendly suite of color tools for designers, developers, and creative professionals. Our journey began when a group of passionate designers and developers recognized a significant gap in the market for intuitive, accessible, and powerful color tools that could be used by professionals and beginners alike.
What started as a passion project quickly evolved into a platform used by thousands of professionals worldwide. We believe that color is a fundamental element of design, and having the right tools to work with color can significantly enhance creativity and productivity. Our initial release of three basic color tools was met with overwhelming positive feedback, which motivated us to expand our offerings.
Our team consists of designers, developers, and color theory experts who are dedicated to creating tools that are not only powerful but also intuitive and accessible to everyone. We come from diverse backgrounds in graphic design, web development, user experience, and accessibility, bringing together our unique perspectives to create a platform that serves the needs of all creative professionals.
Today, Color Red stands as a testament to our commitment to excellence in color tools. We've grown from a small startup to a recognized name in the design community, with users spanning across 150+ countries. Our tools are used by freelance designers, major design agencies, educational institutions, and corporations worldwide.
