Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for generating personalized exosuits. In some implementations, sensor data indicating a three-dimensional shape of stretchable template garment while the template garment is worn by a person and has been stretched to align with the person's anatomy is obtained. The template garment can include indicators corresponding to positions for components of an exosuit, and can correspond to an exosuit design. The sensor data is analyzed to determine locations of the indicators of the template garment. A personalized exosuit design is generated for the person by adjusting a computer model for the exosuit design to locate components of the exosuit at regions corresponding to the identified locations of the indicators of the template garment.
