All you need is to pick a base color for your brand. Paletter will then generate different schemes and palettes for you based on that color. And you can play with it and explore :) I'm the same as you haha

Thank you. At the site I mentioned, I found that I would pick some palettes that I thought suited my needs, and found that they did not follow any of the standard patterns (complementary, etc.). So I came to the sense that the patterns are fine as far as they go, but that they do not go all the way.

But it seems like there's a lot more that goes into making a palette specifically for user interfaces: https://design.gs.com/news/color

There's a difference, part of it is a matter of a taste, like picking a color for your band, part of is it logical, like accessibility, color psychology, etc.

I'd say most people struggle with the taste part, and that's what Paletter helps with. The logical side of things can be learned quickly.
