After Effects:

Premiere:

What's going on? They have the same color space. The export also looks brighter when I play it in Pot Player.

Why can't I get my exports to look right?

Just in case, would you check the color settings on File menu > Project Settings > Color tab in After Effects?

Found the issue, in Premiere I needed to turn on Display Color Management.

You can find this in Preferences > Color > Display Color Management

Now it looks the same in Premiere and After Effects. Still looks washed out in PotPlayer and Youtube but I guess that's to be expected. 

If you have to export for Youtube then change the Working Color Space in After Effects to SRGB and it will look right.
