It's only clear in 1 of the pictures I shared. That is on the "Plans and Details" page.

It's "clear enough" in the other. That is on the Buy Now page. The price is listed as annualized and the REAL monthly price is hidden from view under a drop-down. This is an acceptably deceptive UX practice for pricing. I can give some room for shitty tactics, this is it.

However - it's not clear at all in the first picture I shared. This is the first page and the main page people will see when deciding which product to purchase. This is the main one I have a problem with. If they said it was an annual price, that would be acceptable. But they don't.

They lie.

How deceptive is it from 1-10, if the name of the product starts with the word "Annual".

It doesn't on the first page so that's a 9 and it does on the second page after click through so that's a 1.
