The tools that decide whether you can compete are priced in dollars, for salaries that are not yours. We buy them at volume, settle in the currency the vendor wants, and sell the access on in taka at a price fixed the moment you order.
A designer in Dhaka and a designer in Dublin pay the same twenty dollars for the same subscription. One of them is paying a morning’s work for it. The other is paying a week’s.
Then there is the card. A dollar subscription bought on a taka card adds a conversion margin every single month, assuming the payment goes through at all — and often it does not, which is how people end up borrowing a relative’s card abroad or giving up on the tool entirely.
We started Tools Lab because both of those problems have the same fix: buy the access centrally, at volume, in the currency the vendor prices in, and sell it on locally at a taka price that does not move. Nothing about the software changes. Only the route it takes to reach you.
No rate-limited proxy, no shared workspace dressed up as a personal account, no third-party wrapper. If a plan is pooled, the product page says so before you pay. That disclosure is the whole test.
We hold no payment instrument and can charge you nothing. Every renewal is a decision you make, in a message, before anything is due.
The rate can do what it likes once you have ordered. That risk is ours; the number on your order does not change.
No invented statistics, no badges nobody audited. Every promise on this site is written where you can point at it, and if one turns out to be false that is a refund conversation.
A large discount should make you ask questions. Ask them before you send anyone money — including us. We would rather answer twice than refund once.
