LatticeAI launches 'Accessible Palette' — model that generates color systems meeting WCAG targets

Accessible Palette accepts a seed color or photograph and returns a structured palette including primary, secondary, accent, and semantic feedback colors all validated against WCAG AA/AAA thresholds. The model also suggests hover and focus states and calculates tokenized variations for light and dark modes.

Designers appreciated the model's capacity to preserve perceived hue relationships while tweaking contrast levels, a task that's tedious to do manually. The output includes suggested naming conventions and CSS variables for easy integration into design systems.

LatticeAI released an API and a Figma plugin so teams can generate palettes in the design tool and preview how components look under different contrast constraints. The company emphasized that Accessible Palette is meant to augment designer judgment rather than replace manual accessibility review.
