I'm sure "the Graphic Solution" sounded like an original enough name at the time but it seems pretty generic and non-specific by today's standards. It turns out this was software for creating graphics and animations for presentations. It could incorporate text too so it was basically a predecessor to something like Power Point but for the Apple II.
This ad is from the November 1983 issue of A+ Magazine. It was fairly expensive at $149 but I guess it was reasonable for software that was targeted at businesses. It looks like it did a pretty reasonable job at what it tried to do but I don't know how popular it was.
Here's the full text from the ad. I especially like the random all-caps words:
