An intelligent interface responds to text messages, which in a particular embodiment are addressed to a landline phone number. An IP network interface receives requests including a source phone number, message content and the destination phone number. The intelligent interface includes access to a serialized intent file created by a vectorizer. An intent classifier determines one intent from the serialized intent file based on the received message content. A response is generated according to the one intent. A reply generator generates a reply including the source phone number as a destination, the landline phone number as a source and the response.
