It’s not particularly bad value for what they’re offering, which seems to be a component library and set of templates.
For a comparison, the company I work for are paying over a £1000 / year for MUI-X, which is a set of paid React components. It’s cheaper and more efficient than paying someone at our company to maintain our own component library.
Even a single engineer spending 10% of their time (as I used to) maintaining this stuff would cost the company over £5000 / year in manpower.

That’s for lifetime. Or you could pay five bucks a month for it. It’s been quite impressive, as a person who just uses the service. Tried it on the free tier liked it enough to start ponying up.

Lifetime of the product, not the user. It’s a scam.

All subscriptions are for the lifetime of the product, aren’t they? It’s like Plex Pass; pay monthly/yearly or buy the lifetime and hope they don’t bankrupt out. But if you like a product like that, there’s only a few options, and it seems like they’re trying to stay afloat and still make a relatively open product.
And there’s always the free tier for personal use, which seems to have been glossed over.

If they kill that product then release a newer version of the exact same thing and pretend it’s a different product, that lifetime license won’t carry over.
