Gradients built as
a field of colour not a line of stops

Put colour points on the canvas and move them, bend a mesh, or start from aurora, liquid, metal or holographic fields. Add flow, grain, dither and halftone, and save at the real size of the job — pixels for a screen, millimetres for print. 完全免费。 真的免费。

A freeform mesh gradient with grain, made in Gradienter

What it makes

One tool for every kind of gradient

Each engine, distortion and effect is a set of numbers you can move — and every preset is one of them.

Seventeen engines

Colour as a field

  • Freeform points and a bendable mesh
  • Linear, radial, conic, diamond and box
  • Aurora, blobs, Voronoi, clouds, plasma, contours
  • Rays, bands, metal and holographic

  • Drag mesh points into curves
  • Centres, angles and radii as handles

How it works

Four steps

From a blank canvas to a file at the size of the job.

1

Set the canvas

Pick a screen size or a paper size with PPI and bleed.

2

Shape the colour

Pick an engine or a preset and move its points and handles.

3

Add texture

Distort the field and stack effects: grain, halftone, dither.

4

Save

PNG, JPEG or WebP at full size, or several sizes at once.
