I use a cloud based scheduling software and I can tell it to text message a client an appointment reminder 24 hours before their appointment. How does the software actually send text messages?

If you’re asking how a computer sends a text to a phone
The software is connected to a system that has an assigned phone number. When you send a message, the software handles it the same way your phone sends a text using it’s assigned number. The recipients phone doesn’t know (or care) how the message originated.
With everything being IP, there’s not much difference between your smartphone and a “computer”.
