They claim it will reverse up a gradient.

However I believe (and I'm open being proved wrong) starter motor solutions are very slow (1mph ish) and are designed to obey the letter of the IVA rules rather than being a practical 'everyday' car style reverse.

MK sportscars also do a reverse kit using a starter and a gear ring
