I feel like Make-to-stock is definitely not the answer since it’s more about producing for inventory rather than customization.

I'm a bit confused about Assemble-to-order. Does it really need unique designs, or is it more about assembling from pre-made parts?

Engineer-to-order - the option for those who want their products to be as unique as their personalities. 'Sorry, we don't have that in stock. But we can build you a one-of-a-kind time machine, if you'd like.'

Engineer-to-order, huh? Sounds like the kind of thing where you start with a blank canvas and just wing it. 'Yeah, sure, we can make you a unicorn-powered hovercraft. No problem!'

Engineer-to-order, no doubt about it. That's the one where you basically start from scratch for each product. Sounds like a lot of work, but I guess some customers want that level of customization.
