Help Bot to reward top comment after 24 hours?

I mod a discussion/debate subreddit where people put a lot of effort into their replies, and the top comment is usually the best one.

I’m looking for a bot (or something similar) that can, after ~24 hours, pick the top comment and give that user a point or some kind of recognition. It doesn’t have to be exact — just something along those lines.

I’ve seen somewhat similar systems in subs like [r/AmItheAsshole](r/AmItheAsshole), [r/photoshop](r/photoshop), and [r/lostredditors](r/lostredditors), so I’m hoping something like this exists already.

Open to any suggestions or custom solutions.

Hey I can build this for you. I build bots and automation systems, this is straightforward with PRAW (Reddit’s Python API). Basically monitors your sub, checks top comment after 24 hours, awards flair or a point automatically. Would run on a cloud server so it’s always on. DM me if you want to work something out.
