Yes, it's not at all clear. If you switch away from "Web app" by clicking on an OS, you don't get that (or any) pricing info. Going to the stores themselves, Windows and Mac seem to have a one-time payment, and Chrome and Snap don't seem to have a price.

Originally I was assuming that the vast majority of potential desktop app users would discover it throw the app
stores, therefore the website should focus on marketing the web app. I guess this assumption was wrong, I will update the marketing materials per your suggestions.
i clicked on the link of your site, and the first box i saw said "9$/month". that's enough to click away (for me).
only after i did some more clicking and followed an external(!) link to the store it was obvious you can do a one-time purchase.
in a normal situation i would never have gotten to that point and would have clicked away immediately after seeing 9/month for a new product that still has to prove itself and doesn't have a big name behind it.
