Online education has become an important channel for extensive, inclusive and flexible learning experiences. However, significant gaps persist in providing truly accessible, personalized and adaptable e-learning environments, especially for students with disabilities, varied language backgrounds, or limited bandwidth. This paper presents AccessiLearnAI, an AI-driven platform, which converges accessibility-first design, multi-format content delivery, advanced personalization, and Progressive Web App (PWA) offline capabilities. Our solution is compliant with semantic HTML5 and ARIA standards, and incorporates features such as automatic alt-text generation for images using Large Language Models (LLMs), real-time functionality for summarization, translation, and text-to-speech capabilities. The platform, built on top of a modular MVC and microservices-based architecture, also integrates robust security, GDPR-aligned data protection, and a human-in-the-loop to ensure the accuracy and reliability of AI-generated outputs. Early evaluations indicate that AccessiLearnAI improves engagement and learning outcomes across multiple ranges of users, suggesting that responsible AI and universal design can successfully coexist to bring equity through digital education.
