About Us
Privacy-First Design Tools for a Post-Cloud Web
We build professional design tools for people who cannot afford compromise.
XenPalette is part of the XEN Suite — a growing ecosystem of privacy-by-design web applications that run entirely inside your browser.
No uploads. No tracking. No accounts. No cloud.
Your colors, designs, and creative decisions never leave your device.
Not temporarily. Not anonymized. Never.
Why XenPalette Exists
Modern design workflows are increasingly cloud-dependent.
Most "free" color and design tools monetize by:
- × uploading designs and images to servers
- × profiling creative behavior
- × storing palettes in cloud libraries
- × locking essential features behind accounts or subscriptions
For hobbyists this may be acceptable.
For professionals, agencies, and product teams, it is not.
XenPalette was created as a direct response to this model.
Design decisions are intellectual property.
They should not become training data, analytics signals, or monetization assets.
Our Philosophy: Practice as a Protocol (PaaP)
XenPalette follows a strict architectural principle called Practice as a Protocol (PaaP) .
It means:
- ✓ Software must work without trust
- ✓ Privacy must be provable, not promised
- ✓ Compliance must be a property of the architecture, not a policy page
If a feature requires sending your design data to a server,
we don't build it.
How XenPalette Works (Technically)
All XenPalette tools run:
- • 100% client-side
- • directly in your browser
- • using modern web standards and local processing
This enables:
instant palette generation
real-time accessibility analysis
offline-capable workflows
zero data exposure
GDPR compliance by design
Even we cannot see your palettes —
because there is no technical path for that to happen.

Just tools that work — and then stay out of your way.
Who Is Behind XenPalette
XenPalette is created by Roland Kaloczi, an independent developer and system architect based in Austria.
His work focuses on:
- • privacy-first software architecture
- • local-first and zero-knowledge tooling
- • post-SaaS web models
- • ethical monetization without surveillance
The goal is not growth at any cost —
the goal is software integrity.
Our Commitment
We do not sell user data.
We do not train AI on user designs.
We do not track behavior.
We do not ask for trust — we remove the need for it.
XenPalette proves that professional design tools can exist
without surveillance, accounts, or cloud dependency.
The Bigger Picture
XenPalette is not just a color palette tool.
It is part of a broader movement toward:
- → local-first creative software
- → user sovereignty
- → zero-knowledge design infrastructure
- → a post-cloud internet
The future of design is not more data.
It is better architecture.
