Your agent uses the convert_color tool to map CMYK values to HEX or RGB. You get accurate digital equivalents for your brand colors. Here is how it works.

The results.

Where your color data lands.

The AI processes your print values and delivers these specific outputs.

DIGITAL

Web-ready HEX codes

The AI provides the exact HEX strings you need. You can paste these directly into your CSS or design software.

RGB

Screen-safe RGB values

If you need RGB instead of HEX, the agent gives you the three-channel values. This works well for digital painting or video.

DOCS

Updated brand guides

Your agent can list these new digital values in a clean format. Use this to build your digital style guides.

HUMAN

Visual verification

The AI handles the math, but you must check the colors on your own screen. You decide if the digital version matches your intent.
