Displayed text contrast: 5.71:1 · Accessible text alternatives affect only the preview. Your palette stays unchanged.

The tested pair is used on colored buttons, cards, KPIs and slide bands. Other template text uses #262a23 (13.18:1) or #55594f (6.47:1) on #f6f3ec. Charts have numbered labels. This is not a complete accessibility audit.

Text contrast checker

Accessibility / WCAG AA

Make it readable.

Check the selected color against your text or background color.

AA requires 4.5:1 for normal text and 3:1 for large text. This checks color contrast, not full WCAG compliance.

Color should be seen. Words should be read.

A little theory. A lot to explore.

PALUNEXA rotates hues on the HSL color wheel and keeps saturation and lightness unchanged. Monochromatic palettes vary lightness instead. Harmony is a starting point for design, not a guarantee of aesthetic fit.
