Convert any target color to a CSS filter property — perfect for recoloring SVG icons in img tags without changing the source file.
What Does This Tool Do?
Calculates the CSS filter values (invert, sepia, saturate, hue-rotate, brightness, contrast) needed to transform a black SVG/PNG into your target color. Useful when you can't modify the SVG source.

How It Works
Converts the target color to HSL, then computes a series of CSS filter steps (invert → sepia → saturate → hue-rotate → brightness → contrast) that approximates the target color when applied to a black image.
