To the programmers at the great mikrotik company, we need you provide an application or feature for deep packet inspection like (netify.ai) or something similar so we can make mark packet or qos on L7 easily …is there any hope in the future for that ?
You’d be better of making a “feature” request over at:
But i wouldn’t bet on it cause that’s a NGFW feature at least.

thank you i will ,but It is not difficult or impossible for mikrotik They can do it or agree with another company to do this at the farthest limits
I suppose you may use port-mirroring feature and NetFlow, and then use MikroTik API to re-configure the router.

Complete BS. There is a reason why routers that can do true DPI, aka look at encrypted packets cost more $$ and the reason why then one needs to add $$ subscription services to interact with a cloud site to do the work. It is out of the ball park for the product lines that MT provides.
let it cost more $$$$ where is the problem ?
DPI and associated things like ATP, UTM etc are a very different ball game than simple routing.
I’d never recommend palo or fortinet for pure routers or switches or APs (even though they have started making them) they are NGFW companies.
I’d never recommend mikrotik for NGFW, because they are a router company.
I’d never recommend a Cisco Catalyst 8000 router for a firewall, because its a router. Its just a very different beast, and a market segment im sure would not be worth Mikrotiks time.
if you really want DPI, with a proper design you can integrate the DPI solution of your choice into a topology, there is no “need” to integrate it embedded directly into the MikroTik
in fact, integrating it would be less flexible and versatile than a separated solution
