      <description>&lt;p&gt;I'm an architecture student from Bangladesh and I've been building &lt;br&gt;
Bimukto over the past few months — a collection of free tools that &lt;br&gt;
run entirely in your browser.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;What's available now:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;AI Background Remover (full resolution, runs locally)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;QR Code Generator (custom colors, dot styles, logo embedding)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;QR Code Scanner (camera + image upload)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Text to Speech (26 AI voices + Bengali support + audio effects)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;PDF Tools (convert, merge, split)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Image Compressor (JPEG/WebP, batch)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The main principle: no paywalls for essential tools. Most tools run entirely client-side — your files never leave your device. TTS uses a server-side AI model (Kokoro).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The background remover and TTS are the ones I'm most proud of — &lt;br&gt;
comparable to paid tools, fully free and high quality.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Would love feedback from HN on what tools to build next.&lt;/p&gt;
