In this palette the hues fall in the rose, green and cyan families, spread across 348 degrees of the OKLCH hue circle. Vivid palettes keep chroma between 0.15 and 0.26, and lightness between 52% and 82%, which is why the set feels consistent.

That combination suits app and product marketing, event posters and social media graphics, and it is a good fit when you want a design to feel energetic, confident and attention-seeking.
