I tried a sentence at PolishMyWriting.com. The sentence was: "Onec upon at time, there was a potato." It found my misspell, but it:

  1) Didn't capitalize the correction suggestions.
  2) Ate the space between 'once' and 'upon' upon correction.

And now that I've given it this reply to proof, it doesn't find the misspelling inside the double quotes. Is that intended?

Also, it thinks every first word in 'single quotes' is misspelled.

Quotes are tricky to deal with. I'll note this as a bug and fix it. I'm sure you can imagine NLP isn't trivial and without "launching" there was only so much I'd catch on my own. Will get on these issues though!

I know whats causing the space eating issue. Will get it fixed.
