Help needed setting up nameservers

I’m building a product where users can share their domain names (regardless of where they are registered), and I will manage their custom DNS records in my Cloudflare account. Afterward, I intend to provide branded Cloudflare nameservers for users to update at their registrar. However, I’m unsure if Cloudflare allows customers to add my custom nameservers to their domains, since it seems Cloudflare automatically assigns branded nameservers to any domain added to the account. What’s the best solution for this use case? I need to set up custom nameservers (e.g., ns1.yourproduct.com) and manage DNS records through Cloudflare. Should I use Account Custom Nameservers (ACNS) or Zone Custom Nameservers (ZCNS)? Any advice on how to proceed or automate this via Cloudflare’s API would be helpful. feel free to ask if i didnt explain anything clear. thanks in advance!
