Colormind vs Icon Horse
Colormind generates five-color palettes from a model trained on movies, art, and popular color schemes, returning a plain array of RGB triples from a single POST to /api/ with no signup. A live probe of the real gateway confirmed it now answers over HTTPS as well as HTTP (correcting https false -> true) and sends Access-Control-Allow-Origin: * on every response, resolving cors unknown -> yes.
Icon Horse fetches the favicon for any given domain — trying the site's own icon first and falling back through a chain of alternate sources so a usable image is returned almost every time — with no signup. A live GET against the real host returned a genuine PNG carrying Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *, reconfirming both auth None and cors yes.
